SATURDAY 4/26: Low Country Shrimp Boil at Town Museum

The Cape Charles Historical Society will hold its annual Low Country Shrimp Boil on Saturday April 26 at the Cape Charles Museum from 5-9 p.m. April 26 is also Garden Day on the Eastern Shore, a great time to visit.

Menu features the famous Alabama shrimp boil recipe — shrimp cooked with red potatoes, special “Old Timer” sausage shipped in from Alabama, corn on the cob, onions and peppers. Accompaniments include homemade rolls and coleslaw, dessert and beverages, with wine and beer available. All enjoyed with live music by singer Kasey Rae.

There will also be a Silent Auction and the traditional 50/50 raffle. Seating is available inside the Museum or outdoors under the tent.

Tickets are $30, $10 for children 7 to 12, and are available by cash or check at Sullivan’s Office Supplies in Cape Charles (757-331-3180) or by credit card by sending an email to [email protected]. Also available at the Museum the week of the event.

Event sponsors are most welcome – two free tickets with every $100 of sponsorship. Donations for the Silent Auction are welcome.

The Museum has a small exhibit about the Cape Charles crater which can be seen at the event or earlier in the day.
